Chapter 353 Still Not Bringing It Back
"You don't know, my mother-in-law saw Guan yesterday morning, she was full of energy, scolding her son and daughter-in-law with full energy, sounding healthier than my mother-in-law, she said she knew something bad would happen when she returned home that night!"
"My father-in-law also said that there was a commotion in their family yesterday. It seemed that Mo Erli's wife wanted to sever ties with the old couple, and Mo Dali forced the old couple to drive Mo Chunxiang away."
"Oh my god! Isn't Mo Chunxiang the treasure of Mr. and Mrs. Mo? Can they drive Mo Chunxiang away?"
"What if I don't drive them away? My son and daughter-in-law are going to cut off all ties with them. Are you really going to make the rest of your life miserable just for a money-loser?"
"This Mo Dali is really something, how could he be so ruthless!"
"If you ask me, the Mo family was ruined by Mo Chunxiang. He has endured it until now, which is enough. It's the old couple who can't figure it out! Hey! I'll tell you a secret. I heard that before the incident, Guan went to Mo Erli's wife to make trouble and slapped her. Then she disappeared."
"Hiss! Don't say such things! But, was Mo Chunxiang really driven away? Where could she go?"
Xiong Kai is dead, his mother and children are nowhere to be found, and the house has been given to the eldest wife of the Xiong family. Mo Chunxiang definitely cannot go back to the Xiong family.
"I don't know! But she's definitely gone! She didn't even show up when Guan died!"
Xu was working nearby. After listening to everyone's discussion, she felt relieved. "God is watching what you do! Old Mo Tian is ungrateful and deserves this fate! The girl he raised is not a good person. Fortunately, our Shen Yi didn't marry that scourge!"
This statement was recognized by a lot of people.
Su Tai interrupted their discussion, "Well, my cousin and his family should be home in a few days, we have to hurry up and finish the sweater."
"Yes, yes, that's the real thing!"
After being interrupted by Su Tai, everyone fell silent and worked quickly.
In early November, heavy snow fell, the snow on the ground was already a foot thick, and the biting cold wind was raging.
Normally at this time of year most villagers would stay at home for the winter and would not easily open the door of the main hall, but this year is different.
Early in the morning, before daybreak, there were more and more ox carts on the road, all heading in the same direction, towards Shenjiazhuang.
The snow was too thick, so everyone took turns to clear the way. Although the speed was slow, we chatted and laughed and it wasn't that hard to endure.
When they arrived at the Shenjiazhuang workshop.
As soon as I entered, a wave of heat hit me in the face.
In the middle of the huge house, there was a circle of stone basins with firewood burning very vigorously. On top of them were iron kettles, iron pots, iron basins and earthenware jars, used to cook various soups, including milk oatmeal porridge, pumpkin and millet porridge, white fungus and pear soup, bone soup, fresh milk tea, and a steamer filled with hot buns.
As soon as everyone came in, they felt warm instantly.
Xu was in charge of the wool sweater workshop. She immediately set out a table with bowls and spoons and said, "Come on, come on, tell me what you want to eat and I'll make it for you."
The villagers of Ximen Village had never seen so many good things before, so they hurried over to line up.
Just pick any soup or porridge, and have a bun. Once you’re warm and full, you can get to work.
They come here for a meal in the morning and another one at noon, with a combination of meat and vegetables, no repeats. Although there is no meal before they go back in the evening, the leftover food from the day will be shared with them.
The food is better than what they eat during Chinese New Year.
As long as they can come, everyone is eager to bring their families to work.
Of course, half-grown children and women can still come, but they are too embarrassed to bring in little kids and the elderly, so they can only hide their own snacks carefully and bring them back to satisfy their children at home.
Days like this make everyone feel hopeful and work more enthusiastically.
After Xu distributed snacks to everyone and was about to check how much was left, she heard a noise outside the door.
It turned out that the people who made the skins didn't have enough food to share, so she quickly gave them the remaining food.
He turned around and ran to Su Tai and muttered.
"Your stall is so big. Not only do you pay the workers, but you also prepare such delicious food. All this costs money!" Xu felt pain in her heart just thinking about the food.
Su Tai smiled, "Second Aunt, I know you feel bad for us, but Chen Yi is a town official now, and we can't let people gossip if we ask the common people to come and work. Look, with the wages and food we put out, who would grumble behind our backs?
Besides, if everyone is full and in a good mood, we can do a better job, right? You don’t have to worry about the food, just focus on the money I make! "
Xu waved her hands, "I can't argue with you, but just don't let yourself make a losing deal! What's going on this year? Why hasn't the caravan returned yet?"
Xu muttered a few words. Although her children did not follow the caravan, the woolen sweaters in the village had to be taken out by the caravan to sell for money. These were closely related to everyone's interests.
It is said that people cannot help but think. Just as Xu finished her thoughts, Su Chuan and others arrived in the evening.
Huang Xinghua received the news and rushed back from the riverside workshop in a hurry. As soon as she entered the door, she shouted at the top of her voice, "Tiantian! Tiantian! Boss, where is Tiantian?"
Huang Xinghua looked around but didn't see Chen Tian, and her smile gradually disappeared.
Shen Dagou hurried forward and helped Huang Xinghua sit down, "Mom, my sister may not come back."
Huang Xinghua's eyes rolled back and she fainted.
Everyone was terrified and quickly pinched her Ren Zhong point.
Huang Xinghua woke up slowly and suddenly burst into tears, "Boss, tell me honestly, is Tiantian... is she gone? My poor daughter! Wuuuuu."
She knew that things were not that simple, and what Shen Dagou said before must have been just to coax her.
Shen Dagou was overwhelmed by what he heard, and didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Mom! What nonsense are you talking about! Second sister is fine!"
Huang Xinghua was stunned for a moment, tears still hanging on her face, "You lied to me! If she was fine, why didn't you bring her back! I have been having dreams these past few months. In my dreams, your sister repeatedly told me and your father to take good care of herself. She was leaving and would not come back. Woo woo woo, my poor daughter!"
Su Chuan couldn't bear it any longer, and quickly explained, "Aunt, what Dagou said is true. Sister Chen Tian is fine, very, very fine! Really! She didn't come back because... because..."
"Oh! I don't know how to explain it!" Shen Dagou scratched his head in confusion.
Su Zhan stopped her and said, "Let me tell you! Sister Chen Tian was originally well, but the old illness of the Marquis recurred, and it seemed to be a leg injury. It was fine before, but I don't know why it started to hurt. For a while, it was so painful that I couldn't even walk.
The Marquis asked Sister Chen Tian to come back with us, but Sister Chen Tian was worried. She said that people should not be ungrateful. The Marquis treated her like his own daughter. Now the Marquis has no family around him, and she can't just leave without caring. She said she would wait until the Marquis' condition stabilizes before coming back with us.
This time we will deliver the goods and go to see him. If the Marquis’ injury is almost healed, we will bring Sister Shen Tian back.”
